That’s okay, roommate who has been in the bathroom for 35 minutes. I didn’t want to use the toilet anyway.

AUSTRALIANS, HELP ME!
I’m doing a presentation tomorrow on Australia from a teenager’s perspective to 14-year-old-ish people, what to include?

Tomorrow night I am most probably going out for cocktails (how fancy does that sound? I could have said ‘drinks’ or ‘dinner’ but I said cocktails) with girls from school, and I leave midday on Saturday, so this is probably my last night just chilling in bed, and also my last night of another HIMYM sesh on my laptop. My room already looks like I am very much in the process...

it's cold, baby, come back to bed.
Tomorrow was looking sort of eh, because when we have periods 1 and 2, we need to wake up at 6 to catch a 7am bus. I just checked and saw that we have maths first period, so I went up to ask my host-Mutter whether it’d be okay if I just skipped first, because it’s maths and all I do in maths is either nothing or nothing, and she agreed that I should just sleep in. Now I only have...

german public transport.
They complain when the bus is three minutes late (The bus is late! So late! Where is the bus?!), but three minutes late in Melbourne still counts as ‘on time’, or ‘punctual’. In 2010 I could rely on my trains being at least 5 minutes late (but usually around 7 minutes, or 10 if I really needed to be somewhere on time), depending on the day and time. I was actually shocked...

Something that just gets me about suicide and depression and that sort of thing, is when people react by saying ‘But you’re so pretty!’ or ‘Don’t do it - you’re so beautiful!’ or ‘You’re too beautiful!’. Being beautiful won’t guarantee happiness, and if you’ve sunk to that low, is the sole promise of others perceiving you as...

I only have four more days of school in Germany and I am happy, happy, happy. LNR went to France and got herself a bunch of French buddies and they hung out n shi’, and I thought it would be the same for me. Not the case. School is uncomfortable, awkward, and lonely and gives me way too much time to think. I sit alone most of the time, which is lovely, and I still don’t understand...

– a forum post I read recently, trying to give a solid example of what ‘male objectification in gaming ’ would actually look like if it was anything equivalent to current female objectification in gaming. (via nothingbutsurrender) I would actually love to see this (via ickynicky)

Anonymous asked: I never said nor implied it was a good idea to joke about an actual rape, obviously this is very traumatising and hurtful and must be dealt with seriousness. The wordplay in the de-motivational poster was legitimately funny, it's kinda unfortunate you can't see this. I respect your stance on rape, but please try to understand how this is a joke. It is not and most likely will not promote...

Albus: Dad, I’m…gay.
Harry: Albus Severus Potter. You were named after two Headmasters of Hogwarts. One of them was gay and he was the wisest man I’ve ever known.
Albus: Dad, you say this every time I tell you something. Stop. Just stop.

Albus: Dad, would you mind buying some conditioner? I think we’re out.
Harry: Albus Severus Potter. You were named for two Headmasters of Hogwarts. One of them never used conditioner and he was probably the greasiest man I ever knew.
Albus: Dad, this response is really getting old.
Harry: TWO HEADMASTERS.
Albus: Yes, I get it, two hea—
Harry: BRAVEST AND WISEST MEN.

Ugh someone just please replace Tony Abbott as head of Opposition. He won’t allow a conscience vote on same-sex marriage within the Liberal Party because it would break his election promise of marriage being exclusively heterosexual. You are not even in government. You have not betrayed anyone. Congratulations, Labor now gets the thumbs up from same-sex marriage supporters, you look like a...

I have not yet eaten in a restaurant in Germany, unless you count an Imbiss we went to once before Badminton or the beer hall we went to in Cologne, except we didn’t even eat there, we just drank beer. I am looking forward to solo-dining when I travel around. Even more, I am looking forward to going out for dinner with my family when I get back home. And Taco Bill. I’m looking forward...
